Apparently, our Parliament is still actively investigating the local connections to the Brexit vote shenanigans. I am tempted to take some degree of comfort in this news.

Wow. That's a heck of a thing. For me, I have a personal connection in that a good friend got a teaching position there, so he moved from the US to the UK and will be there when the penny drops next year.

I know a lot was at the behest of millionaires who basically were short-selling the UK, I'm wondering how much was Putin trying to break apart the West and NATO for his own expansionist plans.

Not sure I understand -- are you saying the link didn't work for you? Works fine for me just now, so maybe try again? Or just go to the Parliament of Canada website and find it yourself in the House of Commons Committees section.
